I've done a complete resinstall (erased drive, new OS, new daz install).

HOWEVER, my content is stored on an external, so I jsut set the Content Managent prefernces to point to to the pre-exisitng content folders.  They're all there in my content libary, old scenes load like they should, so yay!

HOWEVER, my smart conntent pannel is blank..and stays blank.

I've done the Content DB Management -> Re-Import Meta Data and it runs thru...but smart conent stays blank.

What am I missing?

(I have a clone of the previous installation if I need to grab somthing from it).

 

EDIT: as added info, there's no "new" badges on anything...tough there should be as that was an option i checked during reimport.

EDIT 2: the install process was DL'ing DIM from accounts, then using it to install Daz 64bit.

    Did you install "PostgreSQL CMS"?

    How would I know?

    Looking, I see it says it's installed in DIM, but that appears to be left over from the previous installation..the files aren't where DIM says it should be...

    So I guess I should delete PostgreSQL CMS (Mac 64-bit) & PostgreSQL CMS from Valentina CMS Conversion and then reinstall.

    Have you tried the Start CMS setting in the menu for the content pane?

    Taking the CMS out of DIM and then reinstalling worked. It was listed in DIM because DIM installed it on the previous system, so the manifest files were in the folder I transfered, but the actual CMS software was not installed on the new image.
